Trump Residences sold out on day 1 of Gurugram launch; record bookings worth Rs 3,250 crore
Smartworld Developers and Tribeca Developers, partners of The Trump Organisation in this project, said they saw 'record' bookings worth Rs 3,250 crores at Trump Residences.
Gurugram: Amid the controversy over US President Donald Trump's claims that he brokered a 'ceasefire' between India and Pakistan, Trump Residences in Gurugram sold out completely on the first day of the launch, with its Indian partners calling it a 'landmark moment for India's luxury market'.
The real estate venture, located in Sector 69 along Southern Peripheral Road and Golf Course Road Extension, is Trump's sixth residential project in India and second in Gurugram alone. Despite construction still being in progress, the 129 luxury apartments priced between Rs 8 crore and Rs 15 crore have already been booked.
The 51-storey twin towers will feature 12 lakh square feet of saleable area with base prices starting at Rs 27,000 per square foot. It was not immediately clear when the construction will be completed.
The project showcases distinctive architectural elements, including floor-to-ceiling glass walls, double-height living rooms, private elevators, and panoramic views of the Aravalli hills. It will also house India's first aquarium bar with an integrated restaurant, the developers said.
'The phenomenal response to Trump Residences is a testament to the aspiration for world-class living in India. Smartworld is proud to lead the delivery of this landmark project, and we thank our buyers for their trust in our vision,' Pankaj Bansal, Founder of Smartworld Developers, told ThePrint, Thursday.
Kalpesh Mehta, Founder of Tribeca Developers, echoed similar sentiments, describing the project as 'not just a real estate project—it's a landmark moment for India's luxury market'. He attributed the success to 'the unmatched magnetic pull of the Trump brand' and how it resonates with India's high-end buyers.
According to the arrangement, Smartworld will oversee development, construction, and customer service, while Tribeca has taken the lead on design, marketing, sales, and quality control for the project.
This represents the second Trump-branded residential development in northern India. The first, Trump Towers in Delhi-NCR, launched in 2018 in Gurugram, is also fully sold out and scheduled for delivery later this month.
In April this year, the Tribeca Developers founder, Kalpesh Mehta, announced that either Donald Trump Jr. or Eric Trump, sons of the current US president, could soon travel to India to oversee progress on the Trump Tower project in Gurugram.
The Trump family has maintained connections with their Indian real estate ventures, with Donald Trump Jr having made visits to the country in 2018 and 2022.

Trump insider makes bombshell claim on UFO and aliens: ‘Very credible people have…'
A Trump ally and the chair of the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, Rep Anna Paulina Luna of Florida, made several bombshell claims about aliens, UFOs, and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast. The 36-year-old said that there is credible evidence about the existence of what they call 'interdimensional beings'. However, she did not get into specifics. U.S. Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) speaks to reporters as House Members depart after a vote. (REUTERS) Luna told Rogan she has viewed classified photographs of unidentified objects inside a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF). According to her, these objects were 'not created by mankind' and could represent technology that surpasses current human understanding. Read More: Harvard, Trump administration near historic $500 million settlement to end federal funding freeze 'They call them interdimensional beings,' Luna said, suggesting such entities might navigate 'through the time spaces that we currently have.' Without revealing classified details, she added that credible witnesses have reported incidents involving movements beyond normal temporal or spatial limits. 'I think that they can actually operate through the time spaces that we currently have. I can tell you without getting into classified conversations that there have been incidents where very credible people have reported that there have been movements outside of time and space,' she added. The Florida Republican, a key Trump ally, noted that she plans to continue for answers and public access to 'previously hidden' information on UAPs. This comes only days after Vice President JD Vance spoke about exploring unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Read More: Trump warns Russia of 'very severe' consequences if it doesn't stop Ukraine war 'I'm obsessed with the whole UFO thing. What's actually going on? What were those videos all about? What's actually happening?' he had said earlier this month. Luna's remarks follow her role in the 2023 House Oversight probe into the government's handling of UAPs, including footage from Florida's Eglin Air Force Base.

Tomorrow's Independence Day, not 'us vs them' day
We all want Independence Day to be safe and secure tomorrow. But much of I-Day has morphed from a spontaneous public celebration into a day of paranoid, xenophobic vigil. This week, a national-level skater and his father were denied a hotel room in Noida, because they were Bengali. The hotel staff reportedly explained to the two Kolkatans that the police had instructed them not to allow people from 'Bangladesh, Punjab, or Jammu and Kashmir to stay until August 15' and that 'people from Bangladesh' and Bengalis from West Bengal were the 'same thing'. Noida Police has denied giving any such instruction. Be that as it may, this is a genie that authorities have to put back in the bottle, ever since Delhi Police issued its infamous July 29 notification conflating Bengalis and (illegally residing) like this, however stray, show how dog whistling - seemingly innocuous messaging, but containing a covert instruction - is becoming normalised among a pliant, willing citizenry. Last month in Gurgaon, a 'verification drive' targeting illegal Bangladeshi immigrants led to migrant Indian Muslim workers being detained. Such paranoid binary thinking - 'them' vs 'us' - vitiates the very spirit of I-Day. It replaces trust and unity with suspicion and division, patriotic pride with paranoia. Worse, it seeps beyond August 15, feeding dangerous narratives India 2025 can well do without. GoI should issue a clear directive stating that valid IDs should suffice for hotel check-ins - which can, anyway, be verified with police if need be. The least it can do is condemn such divisive messagings before tomorrow, when all Indians celebrate freedom from a time when such nefarious conflations were the hallmark of colonial divide and rule.

Farmers, Workers Demand Withdrawal of U.S. 50% Tariffs on India
Gadwal: Farmers' and workers' unions under the banner of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha staged a protest at the old bus stand in the district headquarters on Wednesday, demanding the immediate withdrawal of the 50% tariffs imposed by the United States on India. Speaking at the protest, Farmers' Association State Secretary Gopal Yadav and CITU District President A. Venkataswamy said the steep tariffs would severely damage India's economy, push up prices of goods and services, and worsen unemployment. They stressed that in a largely agrarian country like India, such measures would disproportionately hurt farmers, workers, and agricultural laborers. The leaders reiterated India's sovereign right to make trade agreements with any nation and questioned the U.S.'s authority to interfere in India's ties with Russia. They called on the Indian government to stand firm against 'imperial arrogance' and dictatorial policies aimed at creating a unipolar world, which they said were fueling wars and global economic decline. They pledged the support of farmers and workers for all government measures aimed at safeguarding the nation's economy and foreign policy independence. The protest saw participation from Telangana Praja Front State Treasurer Sankar Prabhakar, District President Naganna, CITU District Vice-President Upper Narasimha, Farmers' Association leaders Nagaraju and Khaja Mainuddin, CITU leader Narasimhraju, and others.
